AbbVie presents a strong long-term investment opportunity, driven by its strategic focus on neuroscience and IBD treatments, despite challenges from Humira's decline. Tavapadon and other neuroscience drugs offer substantial growth potential, addressing unmet medical needs in Parkinson's and other neurological conditions. Skyrizi and Rinvoq are rapidly growing, offsetting Humira's revenue decline, and positioning AbbVie to capture significant market share in the expanding IBD market.
Entering October is the strongest period of the year for three-month returns, and shorter-term returns are also some of the best. Here we take a look at 30 dividend stocks in the S&P 500 that have been the best Q4 performers over the last ten years. 2024 has been a strong year already for high-yielding stocks, and now they have Q4 seasonality as another tailwind.
AbbVie has transitioned beyond Humira's exclusivity loss, with strong growth from Skyrizi and Rinvoq, targeting $27 billion in sales by 2027. The stock has surged to $200, now trading at 16x 2025 EPS targets, making it less of a bargain. AbbVie's dividend yield is 3.1%, with a potential hike to 3.3% in October, but debt remains high at over $60 billion.
AbbVie's high-growth investment thesis is undeniable indeed, despite Humira's painful patent expiry and the erosion observed in its sales thus far. Our optimism arises from Skyrizi's/Rinvoq's promising double-digit growth, excellent ex-Humira portfolio sales growth, and the management's raised FY2024/FY2027 guidance. ABBV's balance sheet health remains reasonable as well, attributed to the projected expansion in its Free Cash Flow generation over the next few years.
These five stocks are known for their generous dividend programs and robust business models.
